Following Around Cues

[Syphilis]

Dearest Control Booth,

I'm in tech on an EOS, and was asked if it is possible to program a follow around a cue, so that a blackout goes in time with the end of a sound Q. What I mean:

Cue 1 GO (Called by SM, Follows to Q 3 in 15 seconds)
Cue 2 GO (Called by SM, on an actor's movement)
Cue 3 GO (Follows from Cue 1)

Is this possible? Firing from Q Lab wouldn't help, because the sound Q fades out on it's own w/out a call.

Thanks y'all!

Try this:

Cue 1 (as is)
Cue 2 (formerly cue 3 follows cue 1)
Cue 3 (on SM's call)

It doesn't matter what the cue number is, the audience sees Cue 3 run before Cue 2.

Yes, the sk8rsdad solution should work. But there's also no reason that the sound fade out in QLab could not auto-follow to a lx trigger.
